The Christian’s Responsibility in the Election Process

God Will Never Let You Go - Eternally Secure!

Have you ever wondered if you can lose your salvation? What happens when you fail, struggle with doubt, or walk through seasons of suffering? In this encouraging episode of Finish The Race, Eric Thompson explores one of the greatest promises in all of Scripture: nothing can separate God's children from His love. Through Romans 8:38-39 and other key passages, you'll discover the biblical foundation for the believer's assurance and the security found in Jesus Christ. Drawing from the teachings of John Calvin, Charles Spurgeon, John Owen, R.C. Sproul, John MacArthur, Martyn Lloyd-Jones, and John Piper, this episode examines the Reformed doctrine of the perseverance of the saints. From God's eternal election to Christ's ongoing intercession, Scripture reveals that salvation is God's work from beginning to end, and He will never lose those whom He has redeemed. If you've been battling fear, guilt, or uncertainty, this message will point you back to the unchanging faithfulness of God. Death cannot separate you. Satan cannot separate you. Your failures cannot separate you. If you belong to Christ, you are secure in Him forever. Stand firm in truth, walk in grace, and finish the race. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

God Never Promised Happiness | Finish The Race Daily

Everyone wants to be happy, but God calls His children to something deeper and more lasting—joy. In this encouraging Finish The Race Daily devotional, we explore the biblical difference between happiness and joy and why Christians can rejoice even when life is difficult. Through Scripture and practical application, you'll discover why joy is rooted in Christ rather than changing circumstances. The world tells us to pursue comfort, success, and personal fulfillment. But the Bible teaches that true joy is found in the presence of God. Learn how the Apostle Paul could rejoice from prison, why God is more concerned with our holiness than our happiness, and how gratitude helps cultivate a joyful heart that endures through every season of life. If you've struggled with disappointment, anxiety, or the constant pursuit of happiness, this message will encourage you to fix your eyes on Jesus Christ and walk joyfully in the Lord. Because happiness depends upon circumstances—but joy depends upon Christ, and Christ never changes. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Who Is Jesus According to the Bible - Part 1

Who is Jesus Christ? Is He merely a prophet, a great teacher, or something far greater? In Episode 2 of The TRUTH Series, Eric Thompson examines what the Bible reveals about the identity of Jesus Christ and why the answer to that question determines eternity. Using Scripture and insights from faithful Christian teachers throughout history, this episode explores the deity of Christ, His incarnation, His death on the cross, and His bodily resurrection. Jesus warned in John 8:24 that unless we believe the truth about who He is, we will die in our sins. In this episode, we compare the biblical Jesus with the false christs presented by Islam, Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses, and Progressive Christianity. We examine common objections, verses often used by false religions, and what Scripture actually teaches about the eternal Son of God. Join us as we seek truth with grace and confidence. Discover why Jesus is not merely one way among many, but the only Savior of sinners and the King before whom every knee will one day bow. Eternity depends on knowing the real Jesus Christ.

Can Women Be Pastors? What the Bible Teaches

In a culture increasingly shaped by opinions and traditions, many Christians are asking an important question: Does the Bible permit women to serve as pastors or elders? In this episode of Finish The Race, we examine what Scripture teaches about church leadership, authority, and God's design for men and women. Rather than looking to culture, emotions, or denominational trends, we turn directly to God's Word for answers. Together, we'll explore key passages including 1 Timothy 2, 1 Timothy 3, Titus 1, 1 Corinthians 11, Ephesians 5, and Galatians 3. We'll discuss why Paul appeals to Adam and Eve, what role distinctions mean, and why equal value before God does not necessarily mean identical responsibilities within the church. We'll also address common objections and highlight the many vital ministries God has entrusted to women throughout the body of Christ. This episode is not about superiority or inferiority, but about faithfulness to Scripture and God's design for His church. Whether you are wrestling with this issue personally or seeking a biblical understanding of complementarian theology, this conversation will encourage you to stand on God's Word with both truth and grace. Join us as we seek to answer one question above all else: What has God said? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Christian, It's Time to Wake Up

Many Christians are physically awake but spiritually asleep. They still attend church, still believe the Bible, and still call themselves followers of Christ, yet something has changed. Their passion has cooled, their prayer life has weakened, and their hunger for God's Word is not what it once was. In this episode of Finish The Race, Eric Thompson explores the biblical warning found in Ephesians 5:14 and challenges believers to examine their spiritual condition. Through Scripture, practical application, and personal encouragement, you'll discover how spiritual drift happens, why comfort and distraction can quietly weaken your walk with Christ, and how sin hardens the heart over time. Drawing from Ephesians, Hebrews, Romans, Revelation, James, and the Psalms, this devotional offers a clear call to spiritual renewal and repentance. If you've felt distant from God, discouraged in your faith, or simply stuck in a spiritual rut, this message is for you. Christ is still calling His people to wake up, return, and run their race faithfully. Join us as we begin the Finish The Race devotional series and learn how to stand firm in truth, walk in grace, and live intentionally for the glory of God. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
